Online ABRSM & Graded Exam Preparation Lessons with Expert Teachers

Graded exams give practice a clear target: set pieces, scales and arpeggios, sight-reading, and aural. The teachers here prepare students for ABRSM, RCM, Trinity and equivalent syllabuses and know how the marking actually works, which is often the difference between a pass and a merit.

Lessons cover the full exam, not just the pieces — including mock exams under timed conditions so the day itself feels familiar.

Online graded exam preparation lessons — FAQs

Which exam boards do your teachers cover?+

Most commonly ABRSM, Trinity and the Royal Conservatory (RCM), plus local equivalents. Ask your teacher on the trial lesson.

Which grade should I enter?+

Your teacher will assess your playing against the current syllabus and recommend a grade you can comfortably pass, usually with a term or two of preparation.

Can I take the exam online?+

Many boards now offer recorded or remote performance grades, which pair naturally with online lessons. Your teacher will explain the options in your country.

Do you cover scales, sight-reading and aural too?+

Yes — those components carry a lot of marks and are usually where the quickest gains are, so they're built into every lesson.

How far ahead should I start?+

Three to six months before your preferred exam session is comfortable for most grades.
